2 Kings 3:3

Yet he persisted in ¹  the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who encouraged Israel to sin; he did not turn from them. ² 

1Ki 12:26-28; 1Ki 12:28-33; 1Ki 13:33; 1Ki 14:16; 1Ki 15:26,34; 1Ki 16:31; 2Ki 10:20-31; 2Ki 13:2,6,11; 2Ki 14:24; 2Ki 15:9,18; 2Ki 17:22; 1Co 1:19,20

¹ tn Heb “held tight,” or “clung to.”

² tc The Hebrew text has the singular, “it.” Some ancient witnesses read the plural, which seems preferable since the antecedent (“sins”) is plural. Another option is to emend the plural “sins” to a singular. One ancient Greek witness has the singular “sin.”
